Bridges Across the World

Ruth Robinson is a psychologist who converted to Judaism and moved to Jerusalem, where she struggles to raise her twin daughters, Gila and Rina, on her own. To her dismay, her best friend, Karen Prescott, disapproved of her choice and dropped the friendship over a decade ago.

Karen has her own challenges as she adopts an orphan, furthers her career as a mathematician, and copes with her father’s hostility toward her husband. Can Ruth and Karen bridge the barriers of mistrust that keep them apart? And will Ruth’s daughter Gila be able to recover from the traumas of her past?
